trustees bumped tuition up 12%. >> we're back to meteorologist christina loren as she looks at the weekend. >> good morning to you. hey, we still got a couple of business days to get through, mr. mcgrew. you're like me thinking about the weekend. if you want to do outdoor activity this is weekend especially inland weather will be nice. it won't be too hot. you can continue to give your ac a break. we have an interesting setup. that area of low pressure that kept on shore flow in place, finally it's pushed inland. but we have another one on its heels that's going to increase the on shore flow. the difference out there is the marine layer's not quite as deep so we have breaks in the clouds. you can see that full moon in some spots especially in the south and the east bay. throughout the day today, temperatures aren't going to climb that much. 56 now in livermore, you're on the way to about 62 at noon, that's it. then we're going to round out at 4:00 p.m. with temperatures in the 70s again, i think santa

rosa and san francisco warmer because we're going to see the sun come through. a little bit earlier than yesterday. it was socked in the city almost all day. 70 degrees, that's what you can expect in san jose. 73 in gilroy. 71 in los gatos. stay tuned. the seven-day outlook. what's to come for the weekend, that's on the way. let's get you on your way to work with mike. >> we're looking a bit north of the last report, this is out of the south bay, northbound 280 around el monte. got word that it sounds like a deer has been killed on the northbound lanes. sounds like the slow lane is blocked. we do see some sudden slowing from 85 up to the scene. that's extensive for a report of this. we're sorry for the loss of the animal. so far no people injured. we have the slowing, we're following and that should clear up over the next few minutes. i'll follow that and the construction on 101 past university. might see flashing lights as you approach the crossover toward the dumbarton bridge.

for the north from there the san mateo bridge moves nicely. there is drizzle in parts of the bay area but the view is much clearer. you can make the lights out on the high rise. that's a good crossing right now. we'll watch as it gets more crowded. >> all right, mike. coming up the man suspected of stealing a picasso from san francisco wanted in another brazen heist. and no charges filed against the airline passenger who wore saggy pants on a plane. why is the legal drama only just beginning? 4:41.

>> if you are just waking up, good morning. it's 4:44. we look inside the control room. the wine expert in jail for allegedly stealing a picasso from san francisco art galleries also wanted for stealing fancy wine back in april. the new jersey journal report there is is a warrant out for mark lugo for stealing three bottles of expensive wine from a store in new jersey. how expensive? each bottle worth $2,000. police in the bay area arrested lugo last week after surveillance video appeared to show a man matching his description, walking away with a picasso from a san francisco art

gallery tucked there under his arm. he's pleaded not guilty in the art heist case. >> the college football player arrested after wearing saggy pants on a plane says he plans to sue. the examiner reports deshon mar mon's correspondents want u.s. airways to reimburse him for the $500 of flight he missed. marman charged with battery on a police officer after he allegedly refused orders from the flight crew to pull up his saggy pants while boarding a flight. the district attorney decided not to press charges. >> it's the world against apple this morning. for more on that and news before the bell let's turn to nicole lapin. good morning. >> hey, good morning, scott. futures turned higher after they were sitting in the red for most of last night. that of course after a major ratings agency moody's warned that it may cut the u.s. credit rating because of the rising

risk of a government default. the u.s. has reached the borrowing limit. they did that back in may and could run out of cash to pay bills starting august 2. if congress doesn't raise the debt ceiling. that would put rates up on treasury bonds and mortgages and other loans linked to treasuries. asian markets were cautious. europe is higher. we get a ton of data out so that could drive the way we trade. yesterday, though we narrowed some losses closing down 44 points, 12,491 is where we closed. the nasdaq added 15 to 2796. amazon is taking on apple. reports say the on line retailer will unveil a tablet device. the tablet has a 9 inch screen. no price has been made available just yet. as of today you have another on

line option for music. spotifi, popular in europe is launching in the united states. it will be by invitation and subscription only. it lets users select specific songs and albums to play back. you don't -- like my invitation got lost in the mail. >> maybe i can send out invitations in which case i will. >> sweet. thank you. >> let's turn to christina who loves a good song. >> i love a man in power as well. >> that's the moon. >> you want to sing that song? >> i do not. >> it's not a blue moon. it's an almost full moon as we head to tomorrow night. the real point i'm trying to make by showing this you can see the sky through those dense clouds this morning.

that might not be the case through the next couple of hours. we expect a pretty significant marine push. in the east and the south bay you can see that glorious moon overhead. the biggest difference we'll notice today, not as much fog, not as deep of a marine layer. i think places at the immediate coast will get warmer, otherwise looking at about the same. where we ended up yesterday. this is where we are now. 54 in san mateo, 50 up in santa rosa, you'll probably dip to the 40s, santa rosa, even napa before we hit our lows. those register right before sunrise. in about 45 minutes. 62 degrees in livermore, 66 in san jose as you break for lunch. no need for the heavy jacket, no need for the tank top. we're dressing as if it were late october. that's where our temperatures are averaging this time of year, about 15 degrees below our seasonal averages in the middle of july. if you're enjoying it we've got

more of the same. the seven-day outlook shows you that. staying mild all the way through the weekend but we gradually add on a few degrees each day through wednesday. back to 83 wednesday. back to you, scott. >> 4:48. kids and teen who is cannot remember a time without harry potter expected to pack for the first showings of the final movie in the epic series. >> you have something of mine. >> harry potter and the deadly hallows will debut, more than 4300 theaters across the country. more than 3,000 of those theaters will show the movie in 3-d making it the biggest 3-d rollout ever. $6.4 billion, that's the amount the first seven movies made at the global box office.

side. there is a 30 by 30 sinkhole here, from our initial reports, in the slow lanes. that's going to close the off ramp until about noon. we have live pictures. we can make out flashy lights. i see the flashing lights in the middle of the screen. you see how light the volume is. >> and we're talking about on the actual exit ramp, not on the highway. >> actually the slow lane of the highway is closed from what i understand, the off ramp. >> to prevent people. and the sinkhole. >> that's huge. you can see it's not a major traffic issue but as the sun comes up we'll get more. bob is saiding out there. we'll get clarification. this could be a major issue. this could have a big impact. >> mike, thank you. finally the bearded one wearing a spandex outfit that would make a tour de france cyclist blush.
